Lemmy does allow anonymous signups, but everything is unencrypted in the database, so if the server was seized all messages, posts and DMs would be available.

Not within Lemmy to my knowledge, but you would have to be careful when setting it up.

If they are happy to cut off the internet, surely they are happy to come after you directly as well. Your placing a very large target on your back.

It doesn't fully deanonymise you, but any activity from that VPN endpoint can be linked to your physical location (at least temporarily).

Its just another data point. If your VPN endpoint is shared it does mitigate this somewhat, but it depends how not careful everyone else is.

Its AI slop, do you really expect them to know what they are talking about?

Activating a CC over a VPN and then using it in person deanonymises your VPN. You'd be better off activating on a maccas WiFi.

More absurd than a free elephant?

Im going to assume that "can't give it away" also means that it can't be transferred to my next of kin. Which if you squint hard enough, means as long as the elephant lives, I must be invincible, or the "can't give it away" rule is violated.

So im gonna get creative with my newfound invincibility.

I suppose I should give the elephant a nice sanctuary to extend its life.

I'd rather see MS paint illustrations than GenAI images.

Gonna have to see the backflip before you convince me :D

So you can keep it on your list if things to worry about.

Brazilians are living in sin. I will never accept their existence.

I personally refuse to blame the hammer.

This is why I don't like signing off commits as "authored by Claude". If I am responsible for the code, it should be attributed 100% to my name. Putting anything else just gives me a way to deflect blame.

XOR with a one time pad is unbreakable, but xor with a short/repeating key is very much breakable.

At the end of the day, a single person can only do so much work. All the experience in the world doesn't change that there is only 24hrs in a day.

A good leader can enable a team of people to work together achieving more than the sum of their individual contributions.

Leaders are force multiplier, and good ones should be compensated as such.

Sadly, we also over compensate the shitty leaders far too often as well :/

You didn't even make the graphics. Overtly slop.

All your examples involve teams, and teams don't typically happen without some form of leadership from someone. An expert without leadership skills will be far less effective at building a team around them than someone with the expertise and the leadership skills.

The expert your describing in your last paragragh IS a leader. If they aren't being compensated as such, thats just them being exploited, and they need to advocate for more appropriate compensation.

Diving. I'm still not convinced that this is real: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_horse

I can get behind that. Even more frequently perhaps. Its insane that for a task as dangerous as driving, once you pass at 18, you don't get re-tested until you kill someone...

I have to do anti-sexual harassment training every year for work, communication/math/logic refreshers once a year would actually be a lot more beneficial.
